I suspect he's going to murder me.
"Liwen...hiss..." When he saw her, Zheng Xi seemed to have forgotten the injury on his face. He covered his injured face and looked miserable.
"Wu Liwen, right? Please sit down."
Wu Liwen nodded to the police, then sat down silently next to Zheng Xi.
Zheng Xi's parents were sitting on either side of her, so she couldn't reach out to comfort her like she used to, and could only act according to circumstances.
When everyone was present, the police started directly: "Why did you hit him?"
Zheng Jijue: "He went to my previous blind date to try to make himself felt and said strange things, which really upset me."
Asked Zheng Xi: "Is that so?"
Zheng Xi: "We just happened to meet. I didn't say anything weird."
"Anything else?"
"He hit someone for such a small thing. Last time, he hit someone just because he said a few words to them. He's a habitual offender!" Xiao Ya insisted that Zheng Xi examine the injury and keep a record. "Examine the injury. We can't let him just brush it off like that every time."
Zheng Xi: "Mom..."
Zheng Jijue slowly raised his head to look at her: "Okay. He tests me and I test him too."
"Ashi didn't touch you at all."
"Who said he didn't move? Didn't he keep appearing in front of him just to irritate me? He even..." He turned to Zheng Xi, "He even sent me a package, making me mistakenly think it was from him."
How could it be? How could he know? Zheng Xi almost couldn't hold back his expression. He thought he had done it perfectly...
"That's because you've been so dishonest to your sister-in-law so many times, so I want you to know how it feels. And I didn't say anything excessive to him."
Wu Liwen sat aside and listened silently.
"What's too much? Like you?"
"This is between me and...it has nothing to do with you." Zheng Xi almost said something wrong and immediately made amends.
"It has nothing to do with me?" Zheng Jijue sneered. "He used my identity information to get a phone number and sent harassing messages to other women. The previous target was a woman who was interested in me, and now it's your wife. You think it has nothing to do with me?"
Zheng Yuanzhou frowned: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Zheng Jijue ignored him and pointed at Zheng Xi, saying, "Comrade police officer, this man not only impersonated me to harass women, I also suspect he intends to murder me."
"The package he sent me was a box of drinks. I drank two bottles and felt dizzy and nauseous. I want to test whether there are any drug components in my blood. I suspect he poisoned me."
Zheng Jicue smiled at Zheng Xi. Before coming, he took a sip to make sure if there was really a problem.
Beating someone? He was just drugged and couldn't control himself.
Everyone was stunned by his accusation. Wu Liwen didn't expect the matter to be more serious than she thought...
Xiao Ya also wanted to scold him and tell him to stop talking nonsense, but her heart was beating fast. Zheng Xi kept telling her not to make a big deal out of it. This matter was like a thorn that forced her to think too much.
Zheng Xi: "I know you don't like me, but don't talk nonsense. Why would I take such a big risk to do something like this? You said I asked for it when I beat people up before, and now you blame it on me drugging you. Because you are my brother, I didn't bother with you before. It's my fault that you think I'm easy to bully and keep pushing me around."
"Why are you asking me why? Why are you asking me about something you did yourself? If you must ask, I can only make a wild guess. For example, you can't get an erection if you don't sleep with women who are interested in me? For example, my annual income is many times yours? For example, I'm more handsome than you, and you're afraid that your wife will like me even if I'm a pervert?"
He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, it seems that you haven't given him enough sense of security?"
Wu Liwen kept her head down and didn't respond.
Zheng Xi: "That's just your imagination. I've never done anything so disgusting."
"This is Zheng Xi's cell phone." Zheng Jicue pushed the phone to the police.
Zheng Xi reacted quickly: "You stole my phone, who knows if you touched it."
"That depends on the company's surveillance. When the police arrived, I was on body camera the whole time, so it can be checked."
The atmosphere became tense.
Just then, Zheng Xi's phone vibrated.
Everyone looked over and saw that it was a call from someone with a note asking to be called from his sister-in-law.
Zheng Jijue exaggeratedly mocked: "I didn't realize you were so good at acting."
Zheng Xi turned his head suddenly and saw Wu Liwen making the gesture of answering the phone, tears already streaming down her face.
She released the number from the blacklist.
"It's not mine..." Zheng Xi explained.
"Comrade police officer, I still have all those messages that harassed me. Please find out who did it so I can rest assured." She hung up the phone and handed her phone to the police officer closest to her.
"Liwen..."
Zheng Xi wanted to go over and explain to her, but Wu Liwen took a few steps back and was protected by the police in time.
Police: "Zheng Xi, sit down."
"Liwen, is there some kind of misunderstanding?" Zheng Yuanzhou was confused, but judging by the literal meaning, it was a serious matter. Even if it turned out that Zheng Xi wasn't responsible, if even a little bit of what happened today got out, it would have a negative impact on the company.
"Yes, you can't let this villain succeed. There must be some misunderstanding. Ah Xi, how could...how could it be possible..." Xiao Ya was speechless for a moment.
How could her son harass his wife? The couple must be joking and now they have a conflict.
It must be like this.
In a trance, I saw Zheng Jicue looking like he was enjoying the show.
Xiao Ya was filled with hatred. "It's you! It must be you! Why would you do this to your sister-in-law? Don't you think you haven't ruined your family enough?"
The Xiao Ya in front of him was the same as the mother in his memory. This was the most common thing she had said to him since he could remember.
Before he was born, the two fools were fooled into believing that having a daughter would bring good fortune to the Zheng family and the couple. They were told that this pregnancy would definitely be a daughter, and the Zheng family guaranteed prosperity. But they ended up giving birth to a boy, him, and then their investments failed and they nearly went bankrupt, so they took their anger out on him.
It was all his fault that Zheng Yuanzhou gave her the cold shoulder and cheated on her later.
He is a debt collector and a jinx...
It wasn't enough, far from enough. Who said his last name was Zheng? Who said they were a family? Zheng Jijue couldn't help but get excited.
"Comrade police officer, I request a blood test right now. The express is still at my home. Since you said it wasn't from Zheng Xi, please find out who sent it to me. And the person I suspect most is Zheng Xi." He raised his chin and pointed the suspect at Zheng Xi again.
"Zheng Ji Jue!" Xiao Ya shouted.
Without Zheng Jijue saying anything, the police immediately warned her, "Xiao Ya, stop yelling."
"I don't just suspect Zheng Xi, I also suspect him and her." Zheng Jijue pointed at Zheng Yuanzhou and Xiao Ya. "If anything happens to me, as my immediate family, they can make decisions for me and inherit my property, so I doubt them."
The expression on Zheng Yuanzhou's face when he pointed at him was quite interesting.
His accusations were already criminal, so the whole family was taken away for re-recording and investigation.
When Zheng Jicue came back from the examination, he saw Xiao Ya talking to Wu Liwen.
"Liwen, go tell the police and say it was just a joke between you and Ah Xi. He's your husband. If he really dies, he's finished."
"Liwen, he is your husband, you have to think it through." Zheng Yuanzhou also advised.
"Mom." Zheng Jicue called her against the wall.
But Xiao Ya reacted as if she was stressed when she heard his voice, "Don't call me mom!"
Zheng Jijue shrugged. "Alright, I just want to tell you not to embarrass my sister-in-law. After all, what can she do if she admits it? Ever since he registered this number, he's been harassing more than just my sister-in-law. How are you going to get others to admit that it's a love affair between them and my brother? Will it cost money?"
"Shut up!"
"Mom, you might as well beg me to admit that it was me who harassed others, not my brother."
Xiao Ya didn't even have the energy to be angry and could only stare at him.
Zheng Yuanzhou, who had been sitting on the bench pretending to be dead, looked up and moved his lips, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by the lawyer he had hurriedly found.
Zheng Yuanzhou had just gone to discuss with his lawyer when Zheng Xi came out under the guidance of the police.
Xiao Ya was overjoyed, thinking that everything was fine, but was stopped by the police and was not allowed to get close.
"Where are you taking my son?"
"The investigation is not yet complete and we still need Zheng Xi's cooperation. Please be patient, family members."
"What does it mean? What does Ah Xi mean?" Xiao Ya stayed where she was, panicked and helpless, and could only seek help from Zheng Xi.
After being interrogated, Zheng Xi was no longer as calm as before. When he saw Zheng Jicue, he did not hide his hatred at all.
Xiao Ya followed his gaze towards Zheng Ji Jue and immediately lost control and rushed over, hitting and scolding Zheng Ji Jue. Zheng Ji Jue didn't move and took two slaps from her before pushing her away.
Xiao Ya fell to the ground, completely distraught. She stared blankly at Zheng Xi being taken away. She suddenly looked up, "Zheng Ji Jue, you...you have to cancel this right now. Otherwise, I will make your affair with him public! I want everyone to know what kind of person he is. He will do anything for money!"
As if she had suddenly discovered Zheng Jijue's weakness, she stood up and walked towards him like a madman, "Hurry! Do as I say immediately! Otherwise, I will destroy him! Make him hate you as much as I do for the rest of his life."
"You can do what you want. I'll say it was me who was pestering him like a pervert."
The threats didn't work, and Xiao Ya was at a loss for what to do. She wanted to find Zheng Yuanzhou, but he wasn't there. She didn't understand why Zheng Jicue hadn't been the one to beat her son up. Why hadn't he been allowed in, while her son had been kept? She looked at Wu Liwen and then at Zheng Jicue, suddenly feeling that these two were setting Zheng Xi up, and she wanted Wu Liwen to change her story.
Her mind was in a mess, and her eyes fell on Wu Liwen, who was looking down, not knowing what she was thinking. "Liwen... Liwen, he's your husband. Is there anything you can't say when you get home? If Ah Xi really lets him frame you, what are you going to do in the future?"
Although Wu Liwen's mind was also in a mess, compared to Xiao Ya, her emotions were calm. Perhaps it was destined to be like this from the day she married Zheng Xi and met Zheng Jijue.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Xiao Ya went to find Zheng Jicue again, "Mom, please, let your brother go! How can your brother face people from now on? He didn't mean to do it. This must be a mistake. Can you please listen to Ah Xi's explanation?"
If what Zheng Jijue said was true, then Zheng Xi was really finished. In her desperation, she had no time to care that the man in front of her was her son, whom she had never had the slightest affection for.
"I think he likes it very much. He's just going to jail. He'll be out in a few years."
Xiao Ya exploded at those few words, "How can that be? Who will respect him in the future?"
"Why haven't you thought about how I'll meet people? Or do you think I'm rotten enough that it doesn't matter what others think of me?"
"He did worse than me on the college entrance exam, and he even said he wasn't feeling well during the exam days. He hinted that I had rigged the exam to make him do poorly." Zheng Jijue chuckled softly. "My dear parents, you believed his words, scolding me while comforting him. You even tried to change my application to Zheng Xi's school. When I found out, you yelled at me, demanding that I go to the same school with Zheng Xi and reflect on myself and atone for my sins. Mom, have you forgotten all this?"
Xiao Ya's face turned pale.
Wu Liwen hadn't expected such a thing to happen. "How could it be..."
